How to care for and reproof /re-wax your Swanndri Oilskin Jacket

Swanndri is well known for crafting high-quality oilskin jackets, vests, and coats, all made from premium European oilskin, also known as waxed cotton canvas. Oilskin, while not strictly waterproof, is highly weather-resistant and will keep you dry for an extended period of time. Particular attention is paid to the construction of our garments to ensure that any weak points - where water ingress may occur - are minimised e.g. seams and stitch holes.
Over time, your oilskin garment will lose its waxy coating and its water repellency will diminish. It is possible, however, to reapply the waxy coating to extend the life of your garment for years to come.
In this video, our GM of Sales, Nic Floyd, illustrates how easy it is to reproof your jacket and explains what you need to get the job done.
